...Yale crews at Gales Ferry rowed in excellent form yesterday afternoon. Leaving the boathouse at 5.30 o'clock the university crew rowed two miles upstream, and, after a short rest, returned in good time. J. W. Curtis, the graduate advisory coach, assisted Coach Kennedy in directing the work. The university four-oar rowed a very even stroke. The freshman crews rowed 1 1-2 miles downstream, starting about 5.45 o'clock. The men rowed well together and seemed to be in excellent condition...
